Synagogues Commemorate Federation Sabbath Mar. 1243
The synagogues of Colum¬ bus have all joined to com¬ memorate Federation. Sab¬ bath; it was announced today by Rabbi David Stavsky, chairman of the Rabbinical Advisory Committee for the 1976 United Jewish Fund Campaign. "Shabbat Zachor—on Friday eyening, March 12, and Saturday, March 13—is appropriate for both remembrance of the op¬ pression of the past and present, and the need ■ for sustaining Jewish life in the future," said Rabbi Stavsky in announcing the schedule of synagogue speakers on Federation Sabbath.
"On my return from Israel," said Rabbi Samuel W. Rubensteint president of the Columbus Board of Rab- • bis, "I am particularly pleased that Federation Sab¬ bath is scheduled for Shab¬ bat Zachor, since Israeli's needs today are as meaningful as ever. We don't need a war to remind us of how Israel—and our own local agencies—need our help. The current United Jewish Fund Drive will be the best way for us to show our concern. I urge all Jews to attend synagogue services regularly,- but to make a special effort on Shabbat Zachor."
The Federation Sabbath speakers and dates scheduled for each synagogue are as follows:
Agudas Achim:' Rabbi Samuel W, Rubenstein will deliver the Federation Sab¬ bath sermon at the Saturday morning service on March 13.
Beth Jacob: The Shabbat Zachor sermon, in com¬
memoration . of Federation Sabbath, will be given by Rabbi David Stavsky, on Saturday morning,. March
Beth Tikvah: Mr. Howard Creinin will join Rabbi Roger Klein in the pulpit at the Friday evening service on March 12, to discuss Federation Sabbath.

JERUSALEM (WNS) - Premier Yitzhak Rabin has accused the United States of heating up the arms race in, ' the Middle East by its proposal to .'end the American arms embargo on Egypt and the recently an¬ nounced plan for a $1.2 billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia. Rabin said that since the U.S. is committed to maintaining the military balance of power in the Mid¬ east it would have to supply greater quantities of arms to Israel and would thus be¬ come "a moving force in the Middle East arms race." Speaking to eighth grade pu¬ pils he said that "Israel's policy is to try to persuade nations with whom it has ties not to sell weapons to nations hostile to Israel." He specifi¬ cally mentioned that Israel will make every effort to block the American sale of six Hercules C-130 transport planes to Egypt. Israeli Am¬ bassador Simcha Dinitz in Washington has lodged a protest over the proposed sale with Undersecretary of State Joseph J. Sisco. Rabin had earlier told the Knesset that he will make every ef¬ fort to persuade the U.S. not . to go through with the sale to Saudi Arabia since the wea¬ pons could reach the "con¬ frontation states."
In Washington, Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger told the House International Relations Committee that the sale of the C-130s was in American interest whether
Israel approved or not. He said „the Ford Ad¬ ministration had agreed to the sale to/"symbolize to Egypt that it has some Western connections," add¬ ing, "but, of course, we cannot be the principal arms suppliers of Egypt." Kissinger stressed that
Egypt is no longer receiving arms or spare parts from the Soviet Union. "This has been a very courageous decision on the part of President Sadat to ease tensions in the area and to move it toward peace," Kissinger said.
Meanwhile, another issue developed over a report that'
Sadat in a press>conference in Kuwait said that he had a "secret" agreement with the U.S. that Israel would not at¬ tack Syria and that the Palestinians would par¬ ticipate in a Middle East set¬ tlement. Senate Majority leader Mike Mansfield (D.

Secret Acts Issue Raised In The Senate
By Joseph Polakoff
WASHINGTON (JTA) - Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield (D. Mont.) on March 3 called for a Senate investigation into claims by Egyptian President Sadat that he has "secret agreements" with the United States that Israel 'would not attack Syria and that the Palestinians would participate in a Middle East settlement.
Sadat made his claims in a news conference on Feb. 29 in Kuwait but it was not known here until' his 'remarks were published in .Egyptian newspapers on Mar, 2. The "secret agreements" Sadat said, were in connection with the Sinai accord signed last Sep¬ tember between Egypt'and Israel.
Mansfield said when asked
-.about the Sadat statement, "I am assuming that the (Senate Foreign Relations) committee staff has already been instructed to make ap¬ propriate inquiries at the State Department and that sonic information will be forthcoming shortly. We were told there were no secret agreements."
The committee of which Mansfield is a member had hesitated to approve the Sinai agreement that in¬ volved the stationing of American civilians in the Sinai between Egyptian and Israeli lines until Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger on Oct. 2 presented assur¬ ances to the Senators from President Ford that the com¬ mittee had been told all
' secret understandings. These assurances were given the committee behind closed doors.
Afterwards, Kissinger1 and Sen Frank Church (D. Idaho) told reporters that Kissinger had informed the committee of all the com¬ mitments made by the U.S. that are regarded as binding in character by the Ad¬ ministration. Four written agreements were sub¬ sequently published by the committee.
At the State Department, following the disclosure of Sadat's news conference, spokesman Robert Funseth said that he was reaffirming that "all relevant agree¬ ments reached in conjunc¬ tion with that agreement (on the Sinai)' have been trans¬ mitted to the Congress." He reiterated that "everything was presented to the Con¬ gress."
When Funseth was asked, if all the relevant agree-'

because of the controversy aroused in 1968 when Scran¬ ton, returning from a special mission to the Middle East on behalf of then President¬ elect Nixon, recommended that the U.S, adopt a "more even-handed policy" in that region. This was widely in¬ terpreted at the time as meaning an edging away from Israel and toward the Arab states. "Asked directly about his- y i96B recommendations by Sen. Jactib K. Javits (R. N.Y.), who observed that they had "caused con¬ siderable apprehension,"
Scranton reviewed the situation that he had found in the Middle East at that time and summarized the con¬ tents of his report to Nixon which is still .classified secret. Scranton said that in 1968 the Russians were making "tremendous strides" in the Middle East, particularly "in Egypt, Sudan, Syria and Yemen and that an Iraqi army was in¬ side the borders of Jordan.
He said his report to Nixon contained three basic recom¬ mendations for U.S! policy: to help achieve a peaceful
